The folks over at TechDealDigger are letting us know about some of the best deals they find on gadgets every day, so we're going to pass that information on to you. After all, in these tough economic times, every little bit counts. We may not be buying Swarovski-covered iPods any time soon, but everyone needs essentials like a computer, so take a look at what the online deals site sent us today.

You can never be too careful -- or obsessive -- about backing up your data. We'll tell you from experience that it's not a matter of if your hard drive will fail, but when. Fortunately, Newegg.com is offering Western Digital 160-gigabyte hard drives for $47.99 (shipped). Sure, terabyte drives exist now, but 160-gigabytes should be more than enough for backing up your essential documents and your treasured home movies and photos. The physically small, portable drive can be powered via your USB port, so there's no need to lug around a separate power cord.

Watch this space every day for new tech deals. [From: TechDealDigger]
